Eating Out In North West England

Monday, August 24th, 2009 | Always Online

When you have a job that allows you to travel around the country you get to experience different districts and the local amenities they have.  I have been fortunate enough to see a large proportion of the towns, cities and villages in Britain and I’m always asked by my friends and family of where to go when they are away from home.  One thing I have found is that Northern England has some of the greatest restaurants to dine at in the United Kingdom and that you can’t beat a Liverpool or Manchester restaurant.

Any time I visit the North of England I frequently try to go out for some thing to eat at a restaurant or pub.  The range of restaurants is fantastic, from basic pub food and pizzas to top end cuisine from a famous chef.  Cities such as Manchester and Liverpool have a great array of good quality restaurants.  I remember my amusement on my first trip to Manchester as I strolled down the Oxford Road and past the University of Manchester to see a vast number of indian restaurants and take aways that must of stretched for a couple of miles.

Restaurants in Liverpool tend to be very stylised and have a real trendy bar feel about them.  This is not very hard to believe as Liverpool is the European city of culture.  This can be great if you are taking a partner out for a meal and you want to impress because most of these restaurants have some great features.  If you are looking for some where to eat that is a little quainter with more of a traditional touch then restaurants in areas like the Wirral and Runcorn are a good choice.

Manchester restaurants have to be my all time favourites.  There are so many fantastic restaurants available.  You can get cheap meals at most pubs and bars but as well as this there are some amazing restaurants to be found in the cities side streets.  One day when I was in Manchester I was taken to the best italian restaurant where the food was great.  The only other time I have had food to that standard was when I was in New York.
